mathsurgery - Measures and mensuration

All
• Read, choose, use and record standard metric units to estimate and measure length, weight and capacity to a suitable degree of accuracy (e.g. the nearest centimetre); convert larger to smaller units using decimals to one place (e.g. change 2.6 kg to 2600 g) (Y5)
• Interpret a reading that lies between two unnumbered divisions on a scale (Y5)
• Select and use standard metric units of measure and convert between units using decimals to two places (e.g. change 2.75 litres to 2750 ml, or vice versa) (Y6)
• Read and interpret scales on a range of measuring instruments, recognising that the measurement made is approximate and recording results to a required degree of accuracy; compare readings on different scales, for example when using different instruments (Y6)

Most
•Convert one metric unit to another, e.g. grams to kilograms; read and interpret scales on a range of measuring instruments
•Distinguish between and estimate the size of acute, obtuse and reflex angles

Some
• Choose and use units of measurement to measure, estimate, calculate and solve problems in a range of contexts; know rough metric equivalents of imperial measures in common use, such as miles, pounds (lb) and pints
• Use bearings to specify direction
